The police are known to go to schools and give various talks, there is always a small amount of funding set aside for these activities. But there is
never money set aside for this kind of fiasco. This midnight event, with scores of investigators, with costs ranging into many thousands, was not a
staged event.
Everyone use your head, the official story relies on not using it at all.

Exactly the point I was trying to make more than once earlier in this thread. Unfortunately.. all I got was criticism.

In essence, I don't buy into this explanation just yet.

The UK is in the process of declassifying all their supposedly secret UFO files over the next few years. If indeed this was a simple a method of
inspiration.. then I find it strange to say the least.

If it was an official cover up story, then I wouldn't be surprised either.

ironically... i live very close to clevedon. I live in a place called weston super mare and to be honest i havent really heard much about this ufo
landing, but the news was saying it was real and the had witnesses speaking about it, i will post scans of the local newspaper on thursday

Hmm...Could have been a black op craft. Maybe someone will come up with a picture or video. Something like that happening, and with the abuncance of
cell phone users with cell phones that have cameras, someone would have at least got a picture.

Cheers!!!!

It takes me somewhere between 6 and 10 seconds to pull my phone out of my pocket, slide up, hold the camera button, wait for a response, aim, wait for
white balance and exposure to settle, and click. That is assuming I am not driving or doing something else at the time, where I may have to pull over
first. If the object is moving or I am moving, it takes a good 2 or 3 pictures before I get something without motion blurring. I know because I have
kids and I am constantly trying to catch them on camera, believe me, it's hard to take pictures of small moving objects limited to your own living
room, let alone an alleged rocket flying across the sky and crashing out of view.

Unless this object was kind enough to sit there for a good 10 seconds and the alleged witnesses were just sitting there doing nothing, why would you
expect the odds of a camera phone picture to be anything other than slim?

After reading the thread over again, and recapping the links i provided ive came to this conclusion ->>

The images and staged UFO learning lesson for the kids was taken a month prior to the event being broadcast on the news [ albiet local news]. This
leaves me with the conclusion that the news website carrying the story made it up as a hoax, though no one has come forward from the news site to
confirm it was a hoax. Included in this hoax was members of the public [ teachers possably ?? ] reporting it late at night [ 12am ] thus feeding the
news site of a UFO landing on the school premises. The news site then broadcasted it as an actual UFO event to cause the hoax but claiming it to be
real. This begs the question, have, or will the News site come forward and claim it to be a hoax?

Either way, given that there is something a bit fishy about it all, i conclued that it is a Hoax and perpentrated by the Media to gain recognition,
perhaps?

what i am finding strange is the fact that the newspaper wrote 2 completly different stories about the same article in the same edition of the paper
why would they do that? the procedure I have noticed with media they normaly put a different story up the next day regarding the same article

You guys disappoint me... They are obviousley playing you at your own game
Spacecraft crashes .... Weather balloon ... The school is ofc running some kinda experiment with how ppl,sceptics,believers react to different
stories.
Roswell anyone

This is a HOAX! Look at the bottom of the article and it has a link to the truth about it being not true.

Young reporters' scoop is out of this world
IF true this story would have been the most newsworthy ever to have happened – and for a few hours it was.
Year 5 and 6 pupils from Yeo Moor Junior School in Clevedon arrived at school one morning to discover part of the school field had been cordoned off
after an aircraft crash sometime the evening before

I'll try to put the link in, but first time don't know if it will work.
